What Golf Equipment Should I Buy?

By Rhys Jones

Purchasing golf clubs can be like throwing your money into the wind, but armed with some fore-knowledge, you can save yourself time and money when you're selecting your golf clubs. As in many things, you can either spend a lot of money in one go or you can spend a little several times, before you get what you really need.

If you are just starting out and are not 100% sure that you want to commit yourself to the addictive game of golf, you should either rent golf clubs at the clubhouse on the golf course, or buy a starter set of golf clubs.

Purchasing a set of starter golf clubs enables you to become accustomed to them; allowing you to concentrate on your swing instead of wondering how this set of miss-matched golf clubs you just rented is going to pan out.

As you become better at golf, you should invest in a better set of clubs more fitted to you.

Generally, a set includes a driver, one or two fairway woods, numbers 4-9 irons, a wedge or two and a putter.

Once become more experienced and start thinking about new clubs, you may want to think about purchasing your driver separately. Some players want a driver to give them more accuracy, others need more distance.

There are numerous sorts of golf ball available and the golf ball box will often have a chart on the back to help you select the right golf ball for your requirements. As you learn more about the game and get better at playing it, you should experiment with different balls which could help improve your accuracy and/or your distance.

Having the right golf equipment is an important part of the game, so watch out and make your purchases wisely!
